Discover what actually works for small business social media in 2025, from branding and consistency to driving real enquiries.
Social media can feel overwhelming. Between platforms, algorithms, and endless content, how do small businesses in Dorset actually make it work? The truth is, you don’t need to be everywhere — you just need to be consistent and strategic.
As part of my social media management services, here’s what really works in 2025.
1. Quality Over Quantity
It’s not about posting five times a day. It’s about creating posts that connect — clear visuals, useful content, and strong calls-to-action. Consistency wins over chaos every time.
2. Local Relevance Wins
If you’re based in Shaftesbury, post about Shaftesbury. Highlight local events, tag other Dorset businesses, and show you’re part of the community. This builds trust and loyalty.
3. Clear Branding Across Platforms
Your social media is an extension of your brand. Consistent logos, fonts, and colours across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn make you instantly recognisable.
4. Calls-to-Action Matter
Posts should always have a purpose — whether it’s encouraging a booking, driving to your website, or raising awareness. Without a call-to-action, followers scroll past.
Conclusion & Call to Action
Social media doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With the right plan, it becomes a powerful tool for growth.
